Shearing & Cutting
All wire products can be easily sheared to square, rectangular, or circular sizes. Complicated geometries can be plasma or laser cut, depending on desired tolerances.
Welding & Framing
Fabricated wire mesh is often a preferred choice for handrail infill panels. Properly framed with “U”-edging, rolled angle, “double-bar” sandwiched flat bars, or other metal sections, these shop fabricated panels are typically provided with mounting brackets for quick installation into the rail system.
At Grating Pacific, our design and fabrication teams are trained to closely focus on proper alignment of the wire patterns. This attention assures that your panels will maintain visual symmetry on continuous level runs or inclined stairways.
U-Edging
U-Edging provides a uniform and attractive appearance to wire mesh panels. As the name implies, a formed “U”-shaped strip of metal is welded to the edge of a panel as specified by the order. Benefits of U-edging include a framed appearance and protection from sheared edges.
Panels fabricated with U-edging are commonly specified with welded tabs or bolt holes for fastening to the supporting structure.
U-Edging is available from stock in carbon steel, aluminum, or stainless steel. Stock openings range from 1/16” to ½” with 1” overall width. Custom sizes are available on special order.
In Stock U-Edging
U-Edging is available from stock in 10′-0 or 12’-0 lengths of carbon steel, aluminum, or stainless steel. Alloy dependent, openings range from 1/16” to 1/2” with 1” overall width. Custom sizes are available on special order.
